I once read on an OB blog: "I tell my patients the only time they shouldn't have sex is in the delivery room." I love that saying, and told it to my midwife who laughed and said she might steal it to tell her patients. Sex during pregnancy isn't just okay, it's healthy for you and your relationship. Any position or activity that could harm the baby will be uncomfortable and you anyway, so don't worry and go with what feels good!

Totally safe and very healthy for you and for your relationship. If your doctor tells you to take it easy with sex, do so-but until then-your all good. Just remember that very sudden/rough jolts can hurt the placenta-so not super rough.

Sex during pregnancy is completely safe, unless your dr has told you otherwise. I wouldnt reccomend anything too rough and out of the ordinary tho. ;) Sex throughout pregnancy, and especially towards the end will actually help soften the cervix and ease dialation and delivery. You will be happy to know that sex is safe especially once you go into your 2nd trimester and your libido is through the roof! ;)
